May Waltzingmouse Christmas Card Challenge

First let me wish all of the mom's a Happy Mother's Day, hoping that your day was just fabulous. It's time again for another Christmas card challenge with Waltzingmouse and this months challenge involves using some chip board of some kind, store bought or homemade.  I don't work much with chip board so I did struggle a bit trying to decide what to do.  I did not have anything store bought that was anywhere close to Christmas so I bit the bullet and made my own.  I punched out a small buckle from chip board and card stock to hold the twill ribbon at the bottom of the card.  Then I started to go through all of my WMS that had any kind of Christmas sayings on them and thought of making a "subway art" type of image.  There were still a few holes that needed something so I decided to add a few pearls. Hope you like it and thanks for taking a peek!


Just for fun
